Description

International affairs expert and award-winning author of Special Providence Walter Russell Mead here offers a remarkably clear-eyed account of American foreign policy and the challenges it faces post—September 11.Starting with what America represents to the world community, Mead argues that throughout its history it has been guided by a coherent set of foreign policy objectives. He places the record of the Bush administration in the context of America’s historical relations with its allies and foes. And he takes a hard look at the international scene–from despair and decay in the Arab world to tumult in Africa and Asia–and lays out a brilliant framework for tailoring America’s grand strategy to our current and future threats. Balanced, persuasive, and eminently sensible, Power, Terror, Peace, and War is a work of extraordinary significance on the role of the United States in the world today.

This short book provides an excellent, very balanced view of America's current policy w/regard to international relations and, specifically, terrorism. The author expands on the "soft power" thesis by introducing "sticky power", which represents economic interests. Thus, he allows for, and discusses, the full spectrum of international relations: hard (military) power, soft (influential) power, and sticky (economic) power. He also places the Bush policies in context with prior US policy, esp. President Clinton's.Very good treatment of a complex subject. Highly readable, informative and balanced. WIll likely disappoint both liberals and conservatives who want the facts to line up with their perceptions.Great book.
